Glenn Maxwell reveals the 'great time' team had after winning T20 WC

SYDNEY: Australian cricket star Glenn Maxwell has given an insight into the team's celebrations post the ICC T20 World Cup title triumph in Dubai recently, saying that the players chilled out by the pool, played golf and "had a few team drinks" to celebrated their victory over New Zealand in the final.

"We had a great time over the next few days. We were fortunate we didn't have to get on the charter in the morning with the Test guys and we had an extra day to chill out by the pool and wear our medals. We had a great time. To be able to wind down with a few of the guys and the public over there was awesome," Maxwell told Kayo's new Summer Rundown podcast on Saturday.

"We finished our golf day, had a few team drinks," added Maxwell.

Recalling the scene when he hit the winning runs, Maxwell said that he got a bit worried when he saw team-mates Adam Zampa and Marcus Stoinis rushing on to the field in jubilation even while the his shot was racing to the boundary.

"I'm willing it over the boundary line and all I can see as the ball's rolling is Zampa and Stoinis overtaking the ball as they're running past and it was only half way out of the circle. It was an amazing feeling. To get Mitch Marsh jumping in to you and crushing your bones was a nice one. The celebrations were pretty awesome," said Maxwell. IANS
